Care and maintenance

Disconnecting the power supply

￿Disconnect the dryer when not in use or during cleaning and maintenance operations.

Cleaning the filter after each cycle

The filter is a fundamental component of the dryer: its function is to collect lint and fluff that form during drying. Clean the filter once drying is completed, by rinsing it under running water or cleaning it with a vacuum cleaner. Should the filter become clogged, the flow of air inside the dryer will be seriously hampered: drying times becomes longer and more energy is consumed. Moreover, the dryer may become damaged.

The filter is located in front of the dryer seal (see Picture).

Removing the filter:

1.Pull the filter’s plastic handle upwards (see Picture).

2.Clean the fluff off the filter and

replace it correctly. Ensure that the filter is placed flush with the dryer seal.

￿Do not use the dryer unless the filter has been replaced in its holder.

Checking the drum after each cycle

Rotate the drum manually to remove smaller items (handkerchiefs) that could have been left inside the dryer.

Cleaning the drum

￿Avoid using abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel cleaning agents to clean the drum.

A coloured film may appear on the stainless steel drum surface: it may be caused by a combination of water and/or cleaning agents such as wash-softeners. This coloured film does not affect the dryer’s performance.

Cleaning the tumble dryer

•The external metal and plastic parts and the rubber parts can be cleaned with the aid of a damp cloth.

•Clean the front air intake grille regularly (every 6 months) with a vacuum cleaner to remove any lint, fluff or dust deposits. Furthermore, remove any lint deposits from the front part of the condenser and from the filter area, using a vacuum cleaner every so often.

￿ Do not use solvents or abrasives.

 

 

￿ The dryer uses ball bearing components that do not

EN

require lubrication.

 

 

￿Have the dryer checked regularly by authorised technical personnel in order to ensure that the electrical and mechanical parts work safely (see Assistance).
